However, they do have their place, especially when trying to access forum content in a light-weight manner. Eg, from a smart-phone, when you are on the way to a flying site (or *at* the site).
To that end, I've enabled feeds for our main Flight Topics forum. The URL is:
http://www.chgpa.org/forums/feed.php?f=2
I don't actually use feeds that much myself!
